Thanks iso

I grabbed the LA304 rear hubs off evilBay and Stephen from Fibrelyte has been in touch to say they might be able to start on the MkII tub for me shortly.

James, did the layshaft for the associated slipper get finished and do you know what associated parts I'd need to use it? I've already got one of the spurs from RW awhile ago.

Yup, pics posted in the alcyon thread. You can use a B4 slipper system or the B4 VTS slipper clutch but recomend the extra torque slipper pads. Id also recomend a rear belt tensioner as well but youll need to cut the rear gearbox to make it work.

Thanks iso, can anyone second that ? Once I have this I can assemble my ZX.
I tried assembling my ZX last night , and found that I cannot really lock the one way properly. I have lost that special step washer that is supposed to be next to the one way, but from my memory, that does not do a good job of locking the one way. Any ideas ?
I now have to grind the steering plate, assemble my new C hubs, and my ZX should be ready, minus the shocks.

latest updates

Seen an over priced ZXR on ebay, hundred pounds over priced. Looks above average but dont think it will go unless the cost comes down.

I saw that one too
One interesting thing, it appears to be a MKI as it has MKI upper deck but the chassis only has six cell slots not 7 like the MKI chassis has, maybe its a MKII chassis with the two extra holes drilled to move the rear bulkhead forward

Id say its a mk1 and does have zx wishbones, mk1 slipper weird front pivot block holder but the top deck is a mk1 variant and not a mk2 just like the towers plus the L brace is a zx or mk1.

Just had a zoom in on one of the pics and it's a carbon fibre chassis so not the original, so I would say it's definitely a MKI ZXR. Definitely overpriced though, gonna be hanging round on evilBay for a while I reckon

Havent had a chance. Locking like Octobers the earliest where im doing a days solid practicing with it. Sorry just had issues happening that have disrupred my plans. Build wise in the gearboxes though its perfect (think you realised that when you checked if it fitted). Locking the one way you can threadlock the screw and tighten it up. You may find it better using a lock nut.
